Mouthwashing - A Subtly Horrifying Game (Review)
Mouthwashing became one of my favorite experiences of 2024. It's been a while since a game has conflicted me and gave me things to reflect on. But be warned, despite this being a horror game, there is some heavy subject matter that might not be for everyone. You might feel terrible once you've discovered the entire story, and you might not even want to finish it. But if you can press on, it's one of the most immersive and cleverly designed games in recent memory.

Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation - 25 Years Later (Milestone Review)
Просмотров 3,4 тыс.Месяц назад
Until now, I have never played The Last Revelation. I was initially dreading it after being frustrated with Tomb Raider games 2 and 3. With the 25th anniversary here, I finally pushed through the dread and played it. And I'm glad I did, because I ended up liking it more than I thought I would. #TombRaider #LaraCroft #Gaming #Review Store Page (Remaster) - GOG: www.gog.com/en/game/tomb_raider_iv...

Despite 5 grueling years of development which included a lawsuit, broken promises, and a major leak, Valve released a legendary game. Playing Half-Life 2 again in 2024 is just as incredible as it was back at release. #HalfLife #Valve #Gaming #Review #PC #Steam Store Page: store.steampowered.com/app/220/HalfLife_2/ 2016 GameSpot Article: The Final Hours of Half-Life 2 - www.gamespot.com/articles...

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves - 15 Years Later (Single-Player Review)
Просмотров 7693 месяца назад
Uncharted 2 released 15 years ago on October 13, 2009. I’m still amazed with the high production values and cinematic set pieces. Most of the characters are still fantastic and memorable. And overall, it’s just plain fun to play through, despite the combat difficulty spikes at times. #Uncharted #NathanDrake #Review #Gaming #PlayStation Store Page: www.playstation.com/en-us/games/uncharted-the-n...
Revisiting Uncharted: Drake's Fortune (2024 Review)
Просмотров 4183 месяца назад
When Uncharted gets brought up nowadays, usually it's the sequels that get the most attention, and rightly so, but that should not diminish Drake's Fortune. It does have some rough edges, but it built a solid foundation of ideas that I think are still enjoyable in 2024. #Uncharted #NathanDrake #Review #Gaming #PlayStation Store Page: www.playstation.com/en-us/games/uncharted-the-nathan-drake-co...

    The best one, as far as I'm concerned. It manages to feel like a true sequel to Tomb Raider 1 in terms of the pacing and level design. I am very much looking forward to next months remaster release.

  • @Alex-ng6hc

    Sorry mate, but you'll never change my opinion. Tomb Raider 2 is my absolute favourite of the classic games. No, it's not perfect, and yes, it has its flaws. Thanks for that, Eiddos Interactive. Even so, I would argue that the number of human enemies makes it more believable than the first game and that the higher emphasis on combat showcases Lara's badassery. And yes, some of the puzzles were tedious, and some of the levels were long and non sensical, but I enjoy every second I spend playing Tomb Raider 2

  • @RevolverRez
    @RevolverRez 12 дней назад

    I just finished TR2 for the first time after loving TR1. I was a little underwhelmed, honestly. My issues (other than the combat) were some sections outstaying their welcome and being overly hostile to the player. The shipwreck did not need to be four levels long and the Floating Islands were a slog and felt like filler. Why not go from the Temple of Xian straight to the dragon? It would make way more sense than suddenly having to go through a Chinese flavour of Half-Life's Xen. It's still a very good game though, and I bet I'll like it a lot more when I get around to replaying it in the future.

  • @AidanMizzer
    @AidanMizzer 12 дней назад

    I honestly completely understand where you're coming from here. I've been a die hard TR fan and speedrunner for many years and TR3 is always the one I dread running. It doesn't matter how well you know the maps, it's INCREDIBLY easy to get lost in places like Lud's Gate and RX Tech Mines. The puzzles are quite unfair as well when compared to the previous two games. I have a love hate relationship with TR3, the nostalgia is definitely there for me to enjoy it - but there are those levels that just seem to be completely backwards in terms of logic and platforming. The save system on PS1 - along with the near absolute darkness in some levels - doesn't do it any favors. I'll still always hold this game close to me though. The 90's were a great time to be a gaming kid.

    TR3 is a great challenge if you've already completed 1 and 2, but if you start with that one like I did back then, it's hell. Nowadays I really enjoy it, I love the variety of levels, the fact that you can choose where to go after the jungle and I like it even more in remastered form, with all the details that look more clearly since there are not the same limitations anymore

    I think the locations are very creative and varied compared to 1 and I like the story. Everyone agrees about the amount of enemies- thankfully they fised it for 3, 4 and 5. Theu made one game that was too focused on combat and learned from their mistakes. Wish I could say the same about the survivor trilogy.

    I disagree. Contemporary gamers want to be guided every step of the way, have a pointer where to go and what to do. Today millions are invested in developing a game, so games are made easy, so that players don‘t lose interest. Take Skyrim for example. It always tells you go there do this and it even navigates you where you need to go. That makes every quest a chore. You don’t need to think.

All I knew was that they got released on PS2, and I still have mine. Hence I'm doing some research on this games, to find out if these are worth a purchase and regarding that objective this very informative review of yours definitely served its purpose.
